Zork2 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi

I am trying to download some JSON files from URLs of the form:

https://stt.disruptorbeam.com/player?client_api=N

Where N is an integer, eg

https://stt.disruptorbeam.com/player?client_api=1

But i get sent to a login screen.

In a web browser this is fine, you just click the "Sign in with Dbid" link, then enter your username and password, after which the URLs will work.

However i have absolutely no idea how to do this in perl.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
